Moz was unable to crawl your site on Jun 22, 2020\. We were unable to access your site due to a page timeout on your robots.txt, which prevented us from crawling the rest of your site.
-
Site: www.kpmg.us
Getting robots.txt timeout fail since 02/29/20. We've checked our server logs and see no errors. Went through all the steps of the "Troubleshooter".
Updated robots.txt to allow rogerbot full access:
User-agent: rogerbot
Disallow:Any ideas how to get roger to crawl my site????
-
Back to the "We were unable to access your site due to a page timeout on your robots.txt".
Could it be the sitemap.xml page specified in the robots.txt is too slow?
Sitemap: https://www.kpmg.us/sitemap.xml
-
OK. Got a different error: Your site crawl timed out due to a slow server response. Passing this along to IT.
-
We fixed the situation where the robots.txt files download (see: https://www.kpmg.us/robots.txt) but rogerbot still cannot crawl the site due to some "timeout" issue on the robots.txt.
-
Hmmm, seems all our robots.txt files download as text files. But the others (ex: advisory.kpmg.us/robots.txt) work with rogerbot. I've asked our IT folk to see how were serving .txt files.

Hi there, thanks for reaching out!
Is the robots.txt for your site located here: "https://www.kpmg.us/robots.txt"?
If so, the issue may be that the robots.txt downloads as a text file which our crawler, rogerbot will be unable to follow. If our crawler is unable to access to the robots.txt it will cause the crawl to fail.
If you're still having issues, please feel free to reach out to the help@moz.com

Drop in Domain Authority across 20 sites
Hi I monitor and track 20-25 sites. I got a -1 in DA across the board this month. Has anyone else experienced this. It's possible my server/cms guys have made a global change. Has anyone at Moz or anyone in the community experienced this?

None of the pages crawled contain an email address or links to a social profile...
I'm trying to reduce the amount of spam flags our website has using the Open Site Explorer tool. Currently, we have 2/17 flags based on: Large Site with Few Links - We found very few sites linking to this site, considering its size No Contact Info - None of the pages crawled contain an email address or links to a social profile The "few links" can be ignored, we're working on this. We don't have a visible email address on the website and we don't particularly want one. We prefer customers to fill out our online form or to call us. Moz say "none of the pages crawled contain an email address OR links to a social profile" - we do have social buttons on every page of the website, but these are official Facebook and Twitter buttons that are rendered with Javascript, so don't actually appear in the page source on load. If we replace these with actual links to our pages using Facebook and Twitter icons, will this flag be removed since Moz are saying "or links to a social profile" - making it sound optional. Thanks!

Site Mark-up is Abnormally Small
My site www.brightonsoundsystem.co.uk has been optimised for speed so I have minimised the code needed. Now if I put it through the OSE spam analysis it has a flag for "Site Mark-up is Abnormally Small". What ratio of visible text compared to mark-up code is being used to trigger this flag. Also as this is the only flag I have is ti worth the time fixing.

Does OSE crawl our site often? Or do we have an other problem? (internal links)
I am wondering if i can find out when OpenSiteExplorer crawled our entire website for the last time.
Link Explorer | | wilcoXXL
A few months ago we added some internal textlinks to all of our productpages. Those are links to the brandpage of that particular product. Some of our brands do have up to 1500 products, so there should be at least 1500 internal links pointing to that brandpage. But OSE still gives me a wrong count. It says there is only 1 internal link pointing to that brandpage.
Is it because OSE never crawled our site again? Or am i missing something here?(maybe too many internal links to one specific brandpage is not okay?) I'll hope you guys can help me out with this one.0
